Sorry if I slowed you guys down last weekend. I did manage to work some gremlins out and now the car is up and running well again. However, before next meet I'll do a full pre-inspection so the same thing doesn't happen.

its funny out of my 24 pics 1/3 are of 7's and they made up about 20% or less of the cars. i guess i get tired of the same old shots (8's in bunches) the 7 tends to stick out (a good thing).

Hey Jesse,
Can I get your black headliner, bins, carpets, and door panels again. This time I'm for reals. Also, Do you still have that guage clust w/ the tach in it. How much? Will it work for an S4? Do the speedo and other gauges still work?
Thanks,
Damon

not even a hint?First off, I'm really excited about it.
Second, the car will be spending some time getting tuned on a dyno. I've ordered a new radiator so I can safely spend a while on the dyno, maybe even a couple different days.
Third, I'll end up with dyno results that show how much extra power my new mod will make. It should be noticeable, this mod seems to work well for other cars.
And here's another hint: even people who are familiar with cars will not be able to peek under the hood and see my new mod.

I guess I've been away for a while. So much intrigue Scotty.I think I'm going to go back and follow the clues.
Quick question?..
Is it one single "mod", one single part, or maybe several things linked together.
Damon
My guess- Is it a V8.

no way would scotty do a V-8. also he is more of a smooth low end power of a twin turbo kinda guy. not the monstorus high boost single turbo king of guy.
I would guess a stand alone (or even piggy back). bear in mind he said "tune" not much you can tune with a factory computer.
but from what I remember he has a motor letting go (water seals), so he would be getting a new engine as well. so maybe a small port job is in the mix?

Allright my real guess is:
Rebuilt motor and turbos, bigger intercooler, and a standalone.
At least a rebuilt motor and standalone
No piggybacks allowed on rotaries, unless you don't like them.
